2015 PLAY BALL! MINNESOTA YOUTH CLINICS PRESENTED BY THE TWINS COMMUNITY FUND AND GREAT RIVER ENERGY

The summer of 2015 is the 55th summer the Minnesota Twins, Twins Community Fund and Play Ball! Minnesota in partnership with Great River Energy will offer free youth baseball/softball clinics. Created in 1961 by longtime Twins scout Angelo Giuliani, the clinic program serves as a way for the ball club to promote the games of baseball and softball to boys and girls throughout the region.

The Play Ball! Minnesota Youth Clinics have always been, and will continue to be, available to participants and communities free of charge. Funding for the Play Ball! Minnesota Youth Clinics is provided by the Twins Community Fund and Great River Energy. No registration is required to participate in a clinic, just show up on the day of the clinic and be ready to learn and have fun.

The current baseball clinic format was developed by Twins General Manager, Terry Ryan and former Twins executive, Bob Gebhard. The current softball clinic format was developed by Terry Ryan Award winner and long-time softball instructor Jim Berbee. Clinics are broken up into two sessions (unless otherwise noted); the first session is for 6-9 year olds and the second for 10-16 year olds.
